    HI team,

    In theatre, here at King Eddies, we practice a 2 step clean.
    Then after hypochlorite has been applied to all surfaces, we wait for 20 minutes, basically enabling the fumes to disappear as some staff are quite sensitive to the smell.

    Hope this helps,
    Wendy

    Dear Brains Trust,

    I am sure I have asked this question before?? Regarding resting theatre following a dirty/MRO case.

    We are currently debating this issue again, does anyone rest the theatre after the clean has taken place and for how long? Where possible the cases are last on the list, but we appreciate that not all MRO cases/dirty cases can go last on the list.

    Advise on this matter would be greatly received.

    Many thanks in advance
